to desire earthly comodities and estéem the riches pleasures and preferments of the place whereof we were inhabitants at high rates but now that God hath dignified us with most royal priviledges and made us Citizens of heaven and of the slaves of Satan hath made us his own children by adoption and grace yea heirs apparent of his glorious kingdom O let us remembring this high calling for shame forsake our base desires not suffering our hearts to lie grobeling on the earth wallowing in carnal pleasures and worldly delights but raising them up to the height of our hopes let us aim at no less then crowns and kingdoms and those not momentary and of this world séeing they are vain and of little worth but those which are most glorious and eternal in the world to come Having shewed you the priviledges of the Citizens of heaven I shall now give you a hint of those ineffable and inconceivable joys of heaven the Apostle St. Paul séems to intimate that he was taken up into paradice 2 Cor. 12.41 That we may have some glimps of the glory we are to know that the joys of heaven is nothing else but that chief happiness and supreme felicity which the holy Saints having served God in this life shall eternally injoy with God himself and his son Christ in the life to come the joys of heaven are called a torrent of pleasures a timely fountain a majestical temple it is called a Crown a Crown of righteousness and lest it should be like the worldly crowns that fade away and subject to change it is a crown incorruptible which cannot be taken from us a crown of life that cannot be lost by death yea it is called glory it self Thus the ravishing joys of heaven are plainly noted by those titles and similitudes which are in the word of God ascribed to it and it is further denoted by way of a mansion a dwelling house we are to remain in and not onely so but an inheritance that is immortal and undefiled that passeth not away an incorruptible crown which cannot perish a fountain of life which is never dry an eternal life which hath no end A Kingdom which cannot be shaken by any violence and eternal glory that hath no limits nor end And thus we sée in part the excellency of those heavenly joys There are two parts of those joys 1. The absence of all evil 2. The presence of all good we shal have a freedome from all evils that may trouble us and have the fruition of all those things that can delight and comfort us Here we are content to injoy the victory over all flesh and blood this is the blessed conquest this is the eternal mansion of glory for which so many of the Saints and holy Martyrs of God have fought manfully under Christs Banner and have béen found more then conquerors through Christ that loved them Let us therefore so strive and fight that we may obtain a glorious conquest over the spiritual enemies of our Salvation and so obtain the crown of Victory which God hath promised us even that glorious felicity the eternal happiness of his heavenly kingdom the which if it be the blessed will of Iesus Christ the righteous to grant us who hath dearly bought it for us to whom with the Father and his holy Spirit be ascribed to him by all his Church all honor glory praise and thanksgiving obedience and dominion henceforth and for evermore Amen Books printed for Charles Tyus at the Three Bibles on the Middle of London-Bridge A Learned Exposition on the Ten Commandements by Mr. Dod. in 4.
